Objective To discuss differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC)postoperative lymph node metas-tasis and clinical use and the effect of 131 I treatment.Methods to185 patients with lymph node metastasis of DTC were selected by random sampling method.The standard 131 I treatment was administrated,ultrasound,CT and Tg chan-ges and imaging characteristics of 131 I treatment were evaluated the clinical curative effect was determined.Results Imaging changes:the whole group of patients,153 patients (82.7%)were effective.153 patients with effective treat-ment,105 cases examined LMDTC completely eliminate (56.8%),48 cases examination revealed narrowing (25.9%).Mere lymph node metastasis after treatment was better than that of patients with viscera metastasis,imaging examination results were statistically significant differences (χ2 =2.57,P =0.02).After treatment,imaging examina-tion result in patients with smaller lymph node was superior to that in the patients with relatively large diameter lymph nodes (P >0.05).Tg level changes:there was a significant reduction in the Tg 97 cases of 185 patients (51.1%), and general decline in 54 patients (29.2%).Tg improvement effect of patients with mere lymphatic metastasis after treatment was better than other viscera metastasis in patients with statistically significant differences (χ2 =3.41,P =0.01).Lymph node Tg improved after treatment in patients with small diameter,which was better than that with other viscera metastasis patients with statistically significant differences(χ2 =6.34,P =0.02).Conclusion Comprehensive curative effect of 131 I treatment of lymph node metastasis postoperatively in patients with DTC is distinct,and is worth popularizing in clinical use of DTC.

Objective To explore the genotoxicity of formaldehyde to mice.Methods Mice were exposed to formaldehyde of several concentrations(1.25,0.50,and 5.00 mg/m3) in the toxicant exposure chamber,2 h/d for 15 consecutive days.Bone marrow micronuclei test and single cell gel electrophoresis were employed to test the genotoxicity.Results Compared with the control group,a significant increase in the rate of micronuclei and the DNA damage of peripheral lymphocytes in experimental groups were found.As to the rate of micronuclei and DNA damage,an obvious dose-effect relationship was showed.Conclusion Formaldehyde has a genotoxic effect for mice,much more attention should be paid in this research field.

Objective To investigate the clinical diagnostic value and pathogenesis of serum protein identification in Keshan disease (KD).Methods A total of 65 chronic KD patients were selected as the patient group in KD endemic areas,while 29 cases of dilated cardiomyopathy (the DCM group),62 healthy cases from KD endemic areas (control 1 group) and 28 healthy cases from non-endemic areas (control 2 group) were selected as controls.Liquid chip time of flight mass spectrometry (ClinProtTM MALDI-TOF-MS) was used to determine the expression of proteins/peptide peaks.ClinProTools 2.2 software was used to analyze the protein profiles to determine differentially expressed proteins/peptide peaks.The Genetic Algorithm (GA),QuickClassifer Algorithm (QC) and Supervised Neural Network Algorithm (SNN) methods were used to screen marker proteins.Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight Mass Spectrometry technique (MALDI-TOF/TOF) was also used as a secondary mass spectrometry to identify differentially expressed peptides.Results Between the KD and control 1 groups,34 differentially expressed proteins/peptides and 5 marker proteins were identified,while 52 differentially expressed proteins/peptides and 5 marker proteins were identified between the KD and control 2 groups,and there were 67 differentially expressed proteins/peptides and 5 marker proteins between the KD and DCM groups.During secondary mass spectrometry,two peptides for mass-to-charge ratio (m/z) 2 079 and 1 465 were obtained,peptide of matching β-globin showed low expression while peptide of matching fibrinogen showed high expression in the KD patients.Conclusions Serum marker proteins can be used as biomarkers for diagnosis and differentiation of KD.β-globin and fibrinogen play an important role in the development of KD myocardial injury.
